Hawaii Things to Do

Planning your day at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park can be somewhat of a challenge due to the constantly changing volcanic activity and the fact that park stretches for almost 500 square miles. Nevertheless, there isn’t really a wrong way to visit the park, and however you choose to spend a day in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park will be one which provides dramatic insight into the way in which these islands were formed.

Maui locals have a proud saying – Maui no ka oi, or “Maui is the best.” And we’re not just bragging, we truly mean it. Maui has a great balance – less populated than Oahu, but enough to do to keep you busy. Great hiking trails, whale watching, zip lining, entertainment, arts and food. Plus, enough small town charm to make you see why those who live here fight so hard to keep it just the way it is.

Maui is perfect if you’re into adventure, relaxation or a little of both. There is so much to do for those partial to land, sea or air. Here is a sample of some of the activities you can do on Maui during a 3-day vacation:

Maui is a favorite among the Hawaiian locals and visitors alike. It is widely known for its meandering country roads, its lush beauty and small sleepy island towns. It is the home of the Bonzai pipeline, Jaws, and the famous North Shore, where surfers come year-round to sample some of Maui’s epic surf. In addition to unspoiled wildernesses, there lies here a dormant volcano, which visitors love to hike through, camp in, and see the miraculous silversword plant which grows in this unique climate and nowhere else on earth.
